    Slow burner, but I'm intrigued none the less.

    I can't see how people can leave negative reviews when the show is only a few episodes in! Thankfully I'm a bit more patient. I'm enjoying it so far and I'm intrigued to know where it's heading.

    Chaos (not) under control

    I gotta say that most of the past comments writers have not seen all the episodes since it become clear on the end what was going on. I don' t want to spoil you some fun watching it, but I can say I saw them all in two days and now I am sorry that I finnished season 1 so fast :D

    Give it a chance

    I wasn't going to write a review, but after seeing the majority of people giving this 5 stars or less, I felt like I had to. Preface - I am not an avid reader of King's books, but I appreciate the films I have seen. This show was well written, acted, and had really beautiful cinematic moments. And yes - it's confusing, but it all gets explained in episode 9 and 10. Now, if you're not a fan of mystery or supernatural-ish/alternate realities, this is not for you. And if you want an answer to something right away, forget it. In my opinion, I disagree with those stating that it's poorly paced, slow, boring and written badly. There is a reason why the show flows the way it does. It kept my attention the entire time, so much so, that I didn't ever look at my phone (that's saying a lot).

    Great show.

    It's a great show. Season 2 is quality. All the references to Stephen king books and how they tie in to the series is just brilliant. Lizzy makes a superb Annie Wilkes.

    Disappointing Finale

    Had to wait a few days to write this. I loved the series leading up to the finale. The penultimate episode was the best of the lot. Great expectations for the end but I was let down. I understand the need to allow the audience to write their own conclusions but could you have at least offered better clues to enable them to do so? The ambiguity was totally unnecessary. Reward your fan base with some type of resolution. I'll give season 2 a go for now but I'm sure some people won't even bother.
